Attached photo taken after the sixth 20 minute session on day 2. The tires were completely shot after the weekend - 3 days. It was a hot weekend and I was pushing pretty hard too. Should also note this was my first set of RE-71s, I was trying to get the temps right, etc. as well.
One thing I was told to try with the next set of RE-71Rs was to take it easy the first session out with them. 10-15 minutes to get them warmed up but not hot. Come in and let the tires cool completely. That definitely made a difference! Much better wear all-around, and on the edges too (w/ -2.8 camber). After 1000 street miles and 4 track days the tires are still in very good condition! The outside temps were a good bit cooler as well.
